MicroAcquire launched their M&A advisor directory today. If you build, they'll help you sell! 🏁

#buildtosell #buildinpublic

producthunt.com/posts/microacq…
βœ… Improved onboarding this weekend

1⃣ signup on buildtosell.io
2⃣ join as a maker or as a (potential) buyer
3⃣ list your first product (makers) or request (buyers)

#buildtosell #buildinpublic
βœ… Buyers now can list their product requests on buildtosell.io

Are you looking for a product built with the tools you want?

List your request and let the makers build it for you!

#buildtosell #buildinpublic
βœ… Added our journey as a timeline on the about page (buildtosell.io/about)
βœ… Added edit functionality to list of products
βœ… Added passwordless sign up / login

Sounds familiar? @softr_io again had a great update today! πŸš€

#buildtosell #buildinpublic
βœ… First project added by someone else
βœ… Got first offer on @TinyAcquisition

#buildtosell #buildinpublic
βœ… You can now edit the status of your products, so you can keep potential buyers informed about your progress

#buildtosell #buildinpublic
As we are building to sell, we listed buildtosell.io on @TinyAcquisition As we keep on building, the price might raise when we add value, until someone wants to take over to grow it further

Sep 24:

βœ… You can now add your own product to buildtosell.io πŸ˜ƒ

We've added our own product as an example. Who else is building to sell?

#buildinpublic #buildtosell
Sep 24:

βœ… Added inspiration page buildtosell.io/inspiration.
βœ… Listed @TinyAcquisition, @Acquire_Me @sideprojectors and @microacquire here, so you can watch how other makers sell their products

#buildinpublic #buildtosell
Sep 23:

βœ… Created a style guide with @GetParade
βœ… Moved the landingpage to @softr_io

What do you think? #buildinpublic #buildtosell
Starting a new project also involves defining your scope:

We decided we won't build a marketplace, Buildtosell.io will be just a listing of makers that are building w/ intention to sell, so acquirers could spot opportunities really early #buildinpublic #buildtosell
@microacquire @TinyAcquisition @indiemakerco Hypothesis II: people that plan to acquire a product would love to get involved early on (before the product is listed for sale) so they can influence what they might end up buying

βœ… Added a sign up form for potential buyers: buildtosell.io/#buyers

#buildinpublic #buildtosell
21/09:

βœ… Created a new project in Softr for the app @softr_io

This is where we'll list makers that are building with the intention to sell + buyers that are planning to buy

#buildinpublic
Sep 20 - completed first steps:

βœ… Registered domain (buildtosell.io)
βœ… Created first landing page with @carrd

#buildinpublic #buildtosell
🏁 Started building buildtosell.io today. Ofcourse, we'll build in public ourselves too. You're welcome to join us along the way πŸ‘‡ #buildinpublic #buildtosell
So let's match: who is building in public aiming to get acquired? #buildinpublic
Hypothesis: with the rise of M&A marketplaces like @microacquire, @TinyAcquisition and @indiemakerco more makers will start building for an early exit (to get acquired) #buildinpublic #buildtosell
